This wait is worse than the time that Half-Life 2 came out and I got it on cds but there was a manufacturing screw-up and one of the cds was a Rilo Kiley album so I downloaded the game for like 3 days from Steam because it was crazy slow back then and when it finished I played for 20 minutes and a blizzard knocked the power out so I packed my tower up in trash bags and carried it, wading through hip-deep snow the 2 miles to my parents house because they had a generator.

I would say the trailer for portal gave a pretty example of what the game is going to be like.

I wouldn't go that far. But yes, 2 takes all the ideas of P1 and expands on it with new gameplay mechanics while delivering a much more interesting narrative.Twilight Princess said:

Not to be too picky but I don't even want to know how many chapters there are. Please spoiler stuff like that.

Best buy currently has Portal 2 on sale. If you pre-order it on any platform you get 500 reward zone points ($10) in addition to the $10 gift card for buying it.
XBOX/PS3 - $44.99 + $10 GC + $10 (500 RZ points) if you preorder.
PC - $34.99 + $10 GC + $10 (500 RZ points) if you preorder.
Go here to add Portal 2 to your cart and it should automatically add the gift card
*Loads up BestBuy.com to preorder PS3 version* Two versions for the price of one! =D

Same. I wish people didn't claim the videos were part of the ARG :-/
At least the ending videos aren't too spoilery -
they are nothing out of the realm of what I already thought would happen.

hide your water-based mammals
I can't see how many chapters there are in a game typically. And I never look to see how many pages there are in my books. It's not an epic spoiler but I would rather find that stuff out myself. I don't care how long it takes to beat it either but that it less sensitive material.Koodo said:
Just wondering, although it'd probably be a bit late to change my preorder, but is there any way to link my PSN account to my Steam account without actually owning a PS3? It's tempting to get the PS3 version on Amazon for the $20 credit or possibly go the BB route, but I don't think I'd want to splurge on a PS3 itself right now.

I know right. Hey guess what, you play the game once then go back to new game - it tells you how many chapters there are.CaptainAhab said:

ha!
Im not mad or anything, but i also dont like knowing how many chapters there are, thanks DevelopmentArrested :/
Might seem ridiculous for you, but even by what you consider standars you should also take into notice that there's some crazy people (like me, i guess) who really dont wanna have nothing spoiled about the game. Even what you dont consider spoilers might be spoilers to someone else. The tag is just one click away, no need to "stand" for what you did and be all political about it, add a spoiler tag and that's that.

How is it so hard for some of you just to not type anything at all related to what you know? Seriously. It doesn't help anyone, it just hurts, no matter how insignificant you think it is.
Okay. Let's clarify something. I haven't been keeping up with this at all much. I didn't even see the April Fools stuff on any sites this year..
I do not have a PS3. I won't have one for a while. So a PS3 version of the game is not in the cards.
I do have a Mac. And I have an Xbox 360.
I know about the PS3 Steam deal, but does it only work one way? I can't buy it via Steam and get it on the PS3 version later? If not, that sucks.
What would I miss out on if I went and bought it on Xbox 360 (I'd much rather play it on a console) or if I bought the Mac version? I mean, I'm not against getting it on the 360 as long as the only thing I'd miss out on is a second Mac version to take with me. I rarely play the free Portal 1 I got a while ago, and already own it on the 360 in Orange Box form.
Also, how much is it? I really want to get it ASAP before I get spoiled by the oncoming deluge of quotes and spoilers that will most likely hit FaceBook in a few days.
Oh, and when it the release official now? It seems to keep changing. Is it out? The site said tomorrow. But some people have it? What is the deal?

It's a thread about Portal 2. People are going to talk about Portal 2. Probably what they know about it. Shocking, I know. By your logic we shouldn't talk about there being co-op in the game, because some people wanted that to be a surprise.

I agree about spoilers, but cmon. Is a level count really a spoiler? Is that hidden in the rules somewhere that I missed?

Isn't that the same thing as asking people how long the game is? If they respond somewhere between 10-12 hours, and you're on hour 11 and are feeling the endgame approach, how is that different?

Hours change for every player.
Chapters do not.
That said, I still think its silly. You'll know by the gameplay/story if it is almost over or not.
